Nasser War Rockets Point Toward Israel
LONDON (JTA)—Egypt's two topmost leaders. President Gamal Abdel Nasser and War Minister-Field Marsiial Abdel Halcim Amer, announced boldly in Cairo this week that the roclcets fired by the Egyptians last Saturday, and other arma¬ ments exhibited In a "Revolution Day" parade, are being amas¬ sed for a war against Israel, according to Cairo dispatches re¬ ceived here.
"I want the world to know," aald President Nasser, "that we will not allow Palestine to remain In the hands ot Israel. As the world haa seen, we are getting ready."
MARSHAL AMER took the sa¬ lute ot Egypt's armed forces, alongside President Nasser, as Cairo watched the military pa¬ rade celebrating the tenth anni¬ versary ot the Nasser coup which overthrew King Farouk, and de¬ clared :
"The United Arat) Republic air force has full command of the skies in our area. Its armed forces are the strongest in Africa and the Middle E)?ist. The enemy facing the Arab world is Israel, an imperialist base. The fact that Israel has an atomic rector, func¬ tioning in secret, leads us to be¬ lieve that she will use it for ag¬ gressive purposes."
THE REPORTS from Cairo In¬ dicated that, in addition to the rockets fired Saturday, EJgypt also possesses now MIG-21 jet fighters recently acquired from the Soviet Union, as well as the new, Soviet TU-16 bombers, plus Russian tanks and new, Soviet types of artillery.
Nasser boasted in his speech opening the "Revolution ttey" celebration that he has still other, secret armaments. He told his crowds; "You will not see ail ot my new weapons. Some wiU re¬ main secret." He said also that, soon, he will open a factory for the production of "Egypt's own Jet planes." Thus far, all of Egypt's jets have been acquired trom the Soviet Union.
Press commentators here point¬ ed out that the rockets fired by Egypt Saturday, at launching pads 50 miles west of Cairo, put Israel within range of Nasser's rockets.
